That cracks me up ,thought I was only person crazy enough to ride in that cold.I was out today for a bit and never thought or noticed the air temp #, will check next time.

I do OK with lower temperatures than some of my friends but the city throws down so much salt that I don't want to get it all over my bike and heaven forbid into the electrical connections. I live in an apartment and have underground parking and would love to go out for a spin from time to time. No hose to rinse off the salt after a ride.

Do they only put down sand in your part of the world?

They use calcium chloride pellets and liquid and plenty of sand. Sand doesn't work at all at zero and below though. In any case it eats the he11 out of you machine. Needless to say the road is really exciting with sand on it!

When I went out this morning for my daily "coffee run", the thermometer in my car indicated an outside temp of -12*. Don't know what the one on the "6" read, but I didn't care much either.

Here in NE Ohio the roads get salted for the snow. Usually it gets turned to dust after a few days and the roads dry out. Once the salt dust has a chance to get blown off the roads I am out there on the bike.
Cold doesn't matter as much as clear and dry roads.
Gonna have to check what the wind chill is when it's 4 degrees F. and I'm doing 75 MPH on the expressway.

I found a new wind chill factor and an old one. New says-30, old says -46.
Translated that means colder than a well diggers ass😎
